Love the Verb

Quickly, just to remember:

An amazing women shared a story with me today about how God specifically TOLD her to do something crazy and wound up using her and that strange task to heal a boy that had essentially become, well, a vegetable.

conclusion:
I'm so sick of hearing people's crap about how they 'study' the Word and nitpick and argue with other believers about doctrine and whatnot. Who freaking cares?! Honestly? Good for you. Now go out and use it. Prove that you know it. .....faith without works is dead.....anyone? SHOW ME how much you know. Show me you know that your overwhelming admiration and love for the Father consumes you in such a way that you're willing to drag a mourning mother (that you've never met) into the room where her dying son lay for the OK to turn off the machines because he's been completely devoid of brain activity for several days and his lungs are essentially mush- all because the Lord said "touch him and pray". Seriously, who cares what you think about what "time" really is and why God chose certain things.... He's in control. Don't worry about the little stuff!

To the Brotherhood:
Don't lose focus. Love God. LOVE God. Love others. Why make things more difficult than Jesus spelt out for us? Isn't He the one that left us His PERFECT example to follow?
Remind yourself that God's not going to ask you if you're Calvist or Armenian (because it doesn't mean JACK in the grand scheme of things-Note: both are backed up in the Bible. My guess is because He is smarter than YOU and me and to remind us that it doesn't bloody matter) and he dang sure isn't going to give out extra stickers for how many times we've read the bible cover-to-cover.

Love the Lord your God. For those that the Living God is your God- Love God. Love people. Love's a Verb, FYI.
